<h4>Chapter 94</h4>


    "No, that''s not it. The expression on my face wasn''t because I hated Momo, but because I was angry. I didn''t want her to follow in my..." Liu Yaying thought of something and swallowed the words she was about to say.


    "Miss Liu, where is the spotted dog?" Fang Rui asked.


    "It''s receiving treatment at the pet hospital."


    "Could you please contact the doctor? We have some questions for him."


    Liu Yaying stammered, "Well... the vet is very busy. I''ll contact him after he gets off work."


    Captain Li saw through her lie and exposed her, "You''ve already killed that dog, haven''t you? You used its blood to soak that cursed doll. The dog isn''t at the pet hospital at all, so you can''t make that call."


    "No, Bugu isn''t dead. I gave it away. That person left Jiangzhou City, and I can''t contact her anymore."


    Fang Rui asked, "You made that cursed doll, didn''t you?"


    Liu Yaying immediately shook her head in denial, "That''s not a cursed doll, it''s... I didn''t put it on Momo''s bed. I don''t know how it ended up there."


    "There was a dried fetus corpse inside that doll," Fang Rui looked at Liu Yaying, deciding to bluff her, "Is that fetus from your abortion?"


    "No, it''s not," Liu Yaying''s face instantly turned pale, "That doll has nothing to do with me."


    She was obviously lying.


    Fang Rui said, "Then please cooperate with us for a DNA test. If that fetal corpse matches your DNA, then you can''t deny your connection to this cursed doll."


    "I didn''t make it, I really didn''t put it on Momo''s bed."


    Fang Rui caught the loophole in her words, "Are you admitting that you made this doll?"


    "I admit it, I had a master make it for me, but it''s not a cursed doll, it''s... it''s for holding my child''s soul. I don''t know why it appeared in Momo''s room."


    "If it''s for holding your child''s soul, why was the doll made to look like Su Momo?" Fang Rui felt her story was full of holes.


    "I..."


    Captain Li didn''t want to hear Liu Yaying lie anymore, he interrupted her defense, "Miss Liu, intimidating others with a cursed doll is also against thew. We need to detain you first."


    "Can you not tell Momo about this..." Liu Yaying looked at them pitifully, "I don''t want to lose Momo as a friend."


    "Of course not. Whether you go to jail or not depends on whether Miss Su will pursue legal action against you. We must inform her of this. Besides, if you consider Su Momo a friend, why would you do something to hurt her? Is this what friends do?" Captain Li said angrily.


    Liu Yaying''s face turned even paler. She tried to defend herself but ultimately gave up.


    Fang Rui conducted a DNA test between the fetal corpse and Liu Yaying, and the results showed a blood rtion.


    This basically confirmed that Liu Yaying had made the cursed doll.


    When Su Momo heard that the person who cursed her had been found, she wrapped herself up tightly, wore sunsses, and secretly came to the police station. Her life assistant, Qi Fang, also came with her.


    "Why is it you?" The moment she saw Liu Yaying, Su Momo was stunned as if struck by lightning, "Yaying, why did it have to be you? I''ve been so good to you, why would you do this?"


    Liu Yaying''s lips quivered, her face full of struggle. She seemed to want to exin, but perhaps feeling she couldn''t, she remained silent.


    "Liu Yaying, exin yourself! Give me a reason why you did this."


    "Momo, I have no exnation. I can''t exin."


    Su Momo''s tears kept flowing, ruining her makeup.


    "Liu Yaying, tell me why you did that. Why did you curse me tomit suicide by cutting my wrists? You know my mother died by cutting her wrists, you know how much of a shock this is to me, why would you curse me like this?"


    Su Momo became increasingly hysterical, "Liu Yaying, we were best friends, we apanied each other through the toughest times. You took care of me when I was sick. Now that we''ve finally started living good lives, why did you betray me?"


    "I didn''t curse you tomit suicide, that doll was..."


    "Enough, Liu Yaying, I''ve had enough of you! Let''s end our friendship here. I won''t pursue legal action against you this time, I''ll bail you out. But you''re fired, you''re no longer my employee, and no longer my friend. Take care of yourself from now on."


    "Momo..."


    Su Momo left without looking back. Qi Fang nced at Liu Yaying, who was also in tears, and smiled at her, "Sister Yaying, don''t worry, I''ll take good care of Momo from now on."


    "Qi Fang, Momo''s health isn''t good. Remember to have her checked regrly, please take extra care of her."


    "I will. You don''t need to worry about her anymore. Sister Yaying, you need to worry about yourself now."


    Su Momo practically ran out, and at the corner of the corridor, she bumped into Chen Xue.


    Chen Xue rubbed her sore shoulder, and when she realized who had bumped into her, her face lit up with joy, "Are you... Su Momo?"


    Su Momo stopped crying and denied it, "I''m not."


    "But... you... oh, I understand. I''m sorry, I must have mistaken you for someone else."


    Seeing that Chen Xue was so understanding, Su Momo said, "Give me your notebook and pen."


    "What?"


    "You recognized me even though I''m all wrapped up like this, you must be a die-hard fan. You want an autograph, right? I''ll sign for you."


    "Mian, quick, get the pen and notebook!"


    Mu Mian thought Chen Xue needed to record an autopsy for another forensic scientist. They hadn''t had any cases recently and were often borrowed by other departments. When they had nothing to do, they asionally helped the neighboring traffic police department with autopsies — of course, these were all voluntarily requested by Mu Mian. She even begged others to let her examine their corpses.


    Mu Mian brought Chen Xue her autopsy record book.


    Chen Xue was stunned. How could she let her favorite idol sign on this? But then she thought, why not?


    "You''re female forensic scientists? That''s amazing," Su Momo praised them after learning their profession, "I happen to have a role where I y a forensic scientist, could you give me some pointers?" Su Momo looked at Chen Xue, "Little fan, let''s add each other on WeChat."


    Chen Xue nodded frantically, her hands shaking throughout the entire process of adding contacts.


    "Um, little fan, are you sure you want me to sign here?" Su Momo looked at the notebook, somewhat hesitant.


    Chen Xue nodded vigorously.


    "Alright then." Su Momo thought for a moment, then signed her name in the victim''s name column. Su Momo''s handwriting was beautiful, each stroke powerful, unlike the mboyant signatures of other celebrities.


    Mu Mian noticed a long scar on the inside of her right wrist, seemingly a knife wound. The scar was covered by her diamond watch, but it was visible when she raised her hand.


    Mu Mian was surprised. Had she attempted suicide by cutting her wrists?


    Chen Xue, having obtained the autograph, was overjoyed. As expected of her favorite idol, she was so unique.


    Su Momo noticed Mu Mian staring at her and thought Mu Mian was also a fan, "Would you like an autograph too?"


    Mu Mian nodded excitedly.


    Just as Su Momo was about to ask Mu Mian where she wanted the signature, Mu Mian took Chen Xue''s record book, flipped to a nk page, found the victim column, and quickly signed her own name.


    "..."


    Mu Mian praised her, "This is the first time I''ve seen someone sign their own name in the victim column. I couldn''t resist signing one too."


    "...I just randomly picked a spot to sign."


    Long after Su Momo had left, Chen Xue was still standing there, clutching her autograph in a daze.


    Mu Mian stood with her. Recently, there had been no corpses for Mu Mian to examine, so she was very bored. Sometimes she would join Chen Xue in doing boring and meaningless things that made Chen Xue happy, like watching "Secrets of the Deep Sea" together.


    "Mu Mian, what are you doing?" Fang Rui saw the two in the corridor and asked, puzzled.


    "Fang Rui, I want to know what Chen Xue is looking at," Mu Mian rubbed her eyes, "But I can''t see anything. Do you know what she''s looking at?"


    "No idea."


    It seems they''ve been too idletely, to the point of developing problems.


    Fang Rui reported the investigation results of the cursed doll to the bureau chief. This matter was considered satisfactorily resolved. However, the chief was still uneasy and assigned Captain Li and Fang Rui to protect Su Momo until she finished filming that promotional video.


    "Fang Rui, you look quite displeased with my arrangement!"


    Captain Li tried to ease the tension: "Fang Rui, this task is too simple. We just need to follow her around. It''s not like anyone''s going to assassinate her."


    The bureau chief and Fang Rui simultaneously turned to look at Captain Li.


    "What''s wrong?"


    "Nothing. Let''s just hope your jinxing words don''te true this time."
